To go back in History and live an event or time period would be very risky. You would be subject to being exposed to plague, war, local laws trivial by today's standards but back then resulting in your execution, and so on . It would be a great responsibility and likely a big disappointment as history most often tells us of the glory and not so much of the misery of everyday life. Having said that, I would choose one week in Nazi Germany, likely around 1935 after the Nazi Party had the Country firmly in their grip. I know the historical "How's and why's" of the rise of the Nazi era, but I would like to understand the psychological the broader range of how the entire country rose to embrace what would untimately become one of the darkest eras in human history.

I would like to journey to the beginning of the time, and dwell forever in the ultimate stillness, the primal chaos pregnant with the infinite potential of the burgeoning universe. I would like to feel the waves of energy from that tiny spark gaze deeply into it and try to fathom the mind of God (if you will). But mostly I would enjoy the stillness, almost like being at the center of an infinite wheel perfect calm, perfect repose. There I would sit with that tiny seed forever on the verge of creation.

Either Ancient Egypt in its prime, when wonderful monuments were being built and the civilization was at its height. Either that or Athens in Ancient Greece. I would love to see the first Olympics.

I think it would be nice to live in the Ancient Minoan Empire for a little while. Nice and relaxing. But not for too long, I'd miss the net.

Hi Silverleaf,
Well, I would go back to the "Middle Ages", when people worked hard for their living ...there was no TV, everyone either walked or rode on horses, and enjoyed the simpler things in life... Seems like it would have been nice.... ;D

Thanks, for the question!;)

My regards!

I would go back into the reign of Elizabeth I. Seeing her and her kingdom would have been amazing.

The 20's right before the depression. People took pride in their appearance and respected one another.

I wouldn't, what if you interfeared with what that person is doing, that would be f%cking with time. I wouldn't step into it at all, maybe a billons dollars would change my mind, highly doubt that.
